The Collection

Watching from afar

Soni. I've always loved Soni. Since the moment we met when we were younger to the very moment, I've followed her everywhere she went, admittedly, even the places she didn't want me to go. Years of rejection made me want to try a different approach, showcase my goods to her a bit more mature than the cutesy pantie shot from underneath my red dress, she needed to see how mature I was now. I was 21 while Soni was 24. I'd ask her out for a date but was always rejected. Why did she reject me? I've seen Soni go out with women and men my whole life! Why was I different?! 
Soni didn't know. She was so carefree. Every time her heart got broken, she'd come cry to me, I cracked under her pressure and always comforted her, I stayed by her side until another person came along. Then she opened her heart and took to another. I hated it. I hated everyone that moved into my territory, it mentally broke me, I ripped open my arms and thighs to release my pain and anguish. It was the only thing that put me at ease in the late night that and shakily smoking and burning it out on my skin, in the mornings I would have more clarity and attempt to cover up my marks. 
*KNOCK KNOCK*
Who was at my door so early in the morning? Peeling myself off the floor I quickly got dressed in a messy hoodie and ripped up jeans right before I answered the door.
"Ames? Hey... You called me last night, but I couldn't make out any of what you were saying, is everything okay? Hey yaw know what, you look a bit tired, how about we go out for a coffee? It'll be my treat! Give me some energy for later tonight you know?"

She was so bright and perky, I loved everything about her, those sparkling emerald eyes and the bouncy curls in her quills, the plush to her lips and the heart of gold she shared with everyone. I understood why everyone loved her, why she loved everyone, but I could never understand why I couldn't have her. I faked a smile and went with her to get some coffee; it was the first time in a while that I actually got to spend time with her. Although, her comment about tonight... Who was going to break her heart this time? Shadow? Honey? Knuckles? One of the stupid Chaotix? We sat down, orders some sweet drinks and treats, then I fell even more in love with her, what she was talking about I had no idea but the way she was moving her eyes around and flipping her hands while she talked then she stopped.
"-Me. Ames? Hey...? Are you okay you are like totally spacing out, you definitely didn't get enough sleep, I asked if you wanted to come to a party with me tonight? You know just about everyone there and I think it would be fun! Just get some sleep first..."
I didn't have a say in the matter she grabbed my hands and smiled, she didn't realize this was messing with my psyche, but I couldn't hold her against it, beautiful yet stupid. 
I faked a smile back and agreed, she paid for everything and took me home.

Soni returned later that night in a beautiful party dress, kind of revealing but very much her style, I was still dressed in a hoodie and ripped jeans, Soni happily grabbed my hand and we headed to whatever party she was talking about. It was a long boring night, Soni disappeared really quick which was normal for her, but I know something was going to happen to her, so I went looking, sure enough she was pinned on the couch by her new man; Mighty. He was kissing all over her neck and lifting her shirt up, revealing her thin lace bra and very large breasts to everyone. Everyone was taking pictures; she was too drunk to even realize what was going on and Mighty just laughed and joined in. It was sickening to see what Soni was forced into, I needed to help her. I needed to remedy the situation. I had to rid those that only wanted to hurt her, my poor sweet Soni. 
I waited and watched Mighty leave Soni on the couch, the moment he did I followed him, cornering him and making my move, I gagged him with a rag soaked in whiskey and tossed him in my car. I didn't trust leaving her behind but he simply needed to go, as I was driving home he started to freak out, instinctively I shoved the rag further down his throat.
Mighty choked and asphyxiated himself, I killed him. I changed course and headed towards dark Canyon, 20,000 miles down of pure darkness. I collected his phone, some personal belongings on him and pushed him out. He couldn't hurt Soni anymore.
Getting back to my house it all hit me at once. I left Soni at that party, kidnapped her boyfriend, killed him and disposed of the body, I was getting a sense of joy from it. Something I hadn't felt in so long. I was finally going to get to protect my beloved Soni, she was going to be all mine, I just had to get rid of everyone in my path.

A few days later Soni came over, looking a bit rough, she didn't say much but she came in and sat down with a blanket wrapped around her.
"...I-I don't know what happened Ames, we were just fine at the party, and he just disappeared, I'm freaked out, I haven't heard from him in days. H-Have you seen him? Mighty hasn't shown up, has he?"
The poor girl. She really thought Mighty loved her. How wrong she was. The only one to actually love her was me but I don't think she's ready to accept that just yet, shaking my head no I sat beside her and turned on the TV so she could try and relax a little, he was dead, 20,000 feet in an dark ditch, she was never going to get him back.
She spent the next month or so by my side, taking in all the love I could give to that air head before she disappeared on me, why would she suddenly fall quiet? Watching her through her windows and a bit of stalking through town I found she had been focusing her time with Honey, seriously again? Honey was wayyyy to much in the spotlight for Soni's taste by maybe they were hanging out aga- They kissed. She moved away from my loving self to some TV famous slut. Another issue I'd have to remedy.
